Food Insights From the Mouths of Babes

Food and Fun | May 4, 2016

April 28 was Take Our Daughters And Sons to Work® Day and several Look East employee owners invited their young family members to learn more about careers at Look East. Aside from the very early intern recruiting process, Look East took the opportunity to learn more about food attitudes, sending our favorite registered dietitian Sarah Downs to interview our young guests.
